Excerpt from The Great Rebellion: Its Secret History, Rise, Progress, and Disastrous Failure I have often had occasion to say that no man alive knew more of this war than I did, and if the people knew as much about it as I knew, or if I knew as little as they did, we should probably all have been together in our sympathies.
